I let you leave ‘cause it was easier that way

You wanted me to give you something I already gave away

I only wanted to avoid it, couldn't stand to add another disappointment to my list

So scratch them to the wall, count up all the times I let it all fall apart

On purpose, just so that I wouldn’t have to be the one to admit that it’s not working

And at least I could say that I tried

I spent the weekend feeling sorry for myself

‘cause I couldn’t bear the thought of seeing you with someone else

I only wish you hadn’t dragged it out

Severed it instеad of telling me that we could work it out

So play it back, a final rеcap of everything I lack

I didn’t know that you were filming

The full collapse of everything that I thought that I had

But it’s nothing like a movie

No title card, no comfort in the ending or the start

But you could still give it a rating in numbered stars

To quantify the value of our scars

I wouldn’t wanna keep you waiting

‘cause honey I know how you’re so committed

To believing nothing lasts, how you’d rather sleep alone at night

Than let me hold you back from getting everything you want

So baby go have fun. Go on and meet someone

And get lonely with them too
